Okay, I've played this a couple of days now and what absolutely sucks is that this game runs so bad even on a good PC. Even if I put it to low quality on everything and run in 1280x800 res, I still get an average framerate of only 25-30, which often drops down to 20! The game is so CPU demanding it's crazy. My CPU is a Athlon X2 6000+ and that's the big bottleneck, but it's the same with Core 2 Duos and even people with Core i 7s have bad framerates, which hopefully means that the beta is terribly badly optimized and the final product will be a lot better.

Here's a screen with max settings 1920x1200 (but without AA or AF) that I normally play in almost all games. 17 frames per second despite there being no action on the screen. Unplayable.

 

It's an awesome game though, I'll return with my overall impressions here or elsewhere (what's the main BC2 thread?).

Try a lower resolution and run it in a window.

I never heard that windowed mode runs a game faster but I'll try! Can't run lower than 1280x800 though cos that's the lowest 16:10 option in the settings.
